A Warm Welcome to Argentina Wine Enthusiasts
Wines of Argentina is delighted to welcome you to the Celebrate
Argentina Tasting Events.
Founded in 1995 and based in Mendoza, our organization repre-
sents wineries that account for over 95% of all wine exports from Argentina.
Our goal is to advance the cause of Argentine wines throughout the world,
drawing attention to their great variety and quality.
Argentina's history of winemaking dates back to the 16th century,
providing us with a tradition of wine consumption lasting over 300 years. Ho-
wever, it is only in the past 20 years that exports have begun to develop, an
extraordinary fact given that we are the fifth largest wine-producing country
in the world. Today, with an industry producing truly world-class wines, we
are one of the fastest-growing countries of origin, showing significant and
continuous increases in exports year on year.
There are many factors that contribute to the success of Argentine
wines: the vast and varied range of terroirs; excellent climate (including many
days of sunshine with little rainfall); pure, clean water from the Andes mountain
range; advanced technology; and sophisticated vineyard and winery mana-
gement. The recent influx of foreign investment is a clear vote of confidence
from leading wine-producing countries such as the US, France, Chile, Italy,
Spain and Portugal. There has also been significant investment made by the
producers themselves: in the vineyards, in the wineries, and in the education
of their winemakers.
Bienvenidos!
